The association of arterial stiffness with estimated excretion levels of urinary sodium and potassium and their ratio in Chinese adults.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Arterial stiffness is an independent cardiovascular risk factor. However, the association between sodium/potassium intake and arterial stiffness in the Chinese population is unclear. Therefore, we performed a large, community-based cross-sectional study to reach a more definitive conclusion. The study was conducted at the Third Xiangya Hospital in Changsha between August 2017 and September 2019. Urinary sodium, potassium, and creatinine levels were tested from spot urine samples during physical examinations of each recruited participant. The 24-hour estimated urinary sodium excretion (eUNaE) and estimated urinary potassium excretion (eUKE) levels were calculated using the Kawasaki formula (used as a surrogate for intake). The brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and ankle brachial index (ABI) were measured using an automatic waveform analyzer. In 22,557 subjects with an average age of 49.3 ± 10.3 years, the relationships of the ABI and baPWV with the levels of eUNaE, eUKE and the ratio of sodium to potassium (Na/K ratio) were analyzed. A significant negative relationship was found between the eUKE and baPWV levels (β = 2.41, p < 0.01), whereas the Na/K ratio was positively associated with baPWV (β = 2.46, p < 0.01), especially in the overweight and hypertensive populations (both p
